Decent defensive performance can be difficult to quantify in stats: How do you rank good positioning, covering or identification of danger? Get yourself in the right place and you won't necessarily even get the chance to put in a crunching, ball-winning challenge.
What I do think will have counted is the two assists he's secured in the last few matches. To which I say: Good, and more of the same please.
I like him. Wouldn't mind him at LFC got him if Moreno leaves.
Guy has been a defensive horror show under Puel and Dunge is right - there’s no stat that’s going to show up how many teams he loses the ball in key positions which then contribute to us indirectly or directly conceding goals
Great going forward - plenty to work on defensively
Just seen the Ronaldo overhead kick goal from last night- no better than Rodney Fern 1969 vs Birmingham City!
It has left me wondering if I have been a bit too harsh with him

Erm, nope.

Debatable stat or lack of recognition?
